LAWS77-754: Capstone – Research Project

Description

The contemporary – and future – legal academic embraces teaching, research, and engagement and successfully integrates these domains into a seamless scholarly identity. The component skills and attitudes canvassed in the first three subjects in the GCLE are essential to the well-rounded legal educator, whose teaching is a work of scholarship. This subject draws together program participants’ learning throughout the program into a coherent personal expression of professional intent as a legal academic. It then guides legal educators in designing, researching, and writing up a journal article representing a work of scholarship in legal education.
